Just an exhaust & Impul ECU

That's pretty good.13.9. I believe that's what Lamborghini Diablo's did. Not a shabby time.

How do you take off? No burnout. Go around the water.Then foot on break, rev's, foot off break go?

I've never had an auto before but the car doesn't seem to hold any revs when I try this and bogs down hard when I try to launch.

Am I missing something? The computer seems to kill the revs rather than just hold them up??

Getting close Chris. STI needs more tune or goes home sad.

Nice one Chris, good launch. 1.8 60 foot is pretty good considering these cars weight. I've lined up against a STI too, took off like a jackrabbit, but by 1/2 track I over ran him. They seem to run

Do you know the performance gain from the Impul and exphaust? I ask as the car I nearly bought had that exact same thing. An Impul ECU and an exhaust. I had no idea the power increase over a standard Stagea it might have had.

Also, 20Valve. Did you have a 20Valve 4AGE?

Matt, does your car have the brake cut mod done? If so, it will just be the stall converter being slightly too small for the turbo now it's highflowed. Some of this lag can be tuned out with the Emanage Ultimate.

Burnout or not made no difference, there's no wheelspin on takeoff regardless. And yeah, just stall it up on the line & get off the brake when you see a green light. lol

Sounds like brake cut switch isnt on if you cant get the revs up, maybe.

The exhaust gave the most noticable difference, but i dont have any before & after figures. I'll line up someone with just an exhaust one day & see what the actual difference is to compare what the Impul is doing for me.

And yes, had a 20v AE86 years & years ago. :D

You has pics of Hachi?

My workshop owning mate just offloaded his 20V headed, GZE bottom ended AE86 a little while ago; was good for an 11.1 quarter! 330mm Wilwoods and a tonne of fun bits.

Very lively to drive.

No fks given. Hopefully it knocks the crowd on the head. Moar runs.

Slow.

Like the results.

Ok. PNM35 RX light mods cat back exhaust, plenum top, transgo kit, otherwise stock

14.9@93mph.

Did three runs. All within 0.01 of each other. Anyway, had some fun. 60 foot was the same as with the turbo kit. ET was 1.1 sec slower.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Yea that's a fair assumption. I'm presuming they call them solid lifters as they have no moving parts like hydro lifters.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I believe you're confusing WMI with water injection. Looking at that graph, the 93aki+WMI car is making more power than C16 race gas. Boost juice, which is what I also run, is Snow Performances 50/50 premix.

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.

      Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣

      I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
